A gynaecological out-patient population consisting of 200 patients aged 19-43 years (mean age 34.2 years) was screened for the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) by the polymerase chain reaction and in situ hybridization on cervical scrapings. A novel method was applied for the detection of HPV in cervical cells by embedding them in a paraffin block before in situ hybridization was performed. This technique resulted in well preserved cytological morphology, easy performance and economy of probes. In eight of the 200 patients (4%), human papillomavirus DNA was revealed by the polymerase chain reaction. Subtyping revealed the presence of HPV serotype 16 DNA in three of these patients. In one patient HPV serotype 18 DNA was also present. The in situ hybridization assay was able to detect all those cases with a specific HPV serotype infection.
